As for fully-electric cars, they are beyond affordability for most families, they take hours to charge--you can't go anywhere at anytime, and they are hard on the environment. The rare earth minerals needed for those cars batteries are mined--and a lot of energy is used to do so. And disposing of these batteries presents a toxic risk.

Don't forget that the power source for re-charging the batteries is almost always fossil fueled. On the other hand driving one, or even just having it parked at your home, is just sooo virtuous.
